Save the Date for the UMB Global Health Summit May 25-27

Throughout the three half-days of the “Decolonizing Global Health Education” summit, attendees will learn about this important topic and how use of a decolonizing lens can harness a more equitable and diverse community of global learners and global professionals. All will learn about historical aspects of global health education and actively explore possible strategies for tackling power imbalances in the ways global health is taught and understood around the world.
 
The UMB Global Health Summit will feature students and trainees from UMB and our international partner organizations as they reflect on the impact of colonialism and racism on their professions and help visualize a more equitable and mutually beneficial way of learning in the future.
 
We hope you can join us and other UMB faculty and students to co-create a shared new vision to guide UMB’s global health work towards greater equity.
